The Clear and Brilliant laser is wonderful! Just a little rosy glow, next day you look great, and no noticeable peeling. My skin's texture is smooth, no visible pores, and very even. No one believes my age when I tell them! Love this treatment.
Great Dermatologist! Came in with lots of sun and acne marks, she used liquid nitrogen and I left w new skin- literally. She has in the past removed moles and made sure through biopsies that all was ok. She’s thurrow and trustworthy! I highly recommend her. I was vey happy with her exucution of treatment. Her staff has also been with her for many years. This means everyone in the office knows how to beat inform you.
I first saw Dr. Davis four years ago regarding male pattern baldness. She suggested a regimen of finasteride which I have been on ever since. I have seen amazing results since then. I now phone in for consultations every 6 months as I have moved out of town. Dr. Davis is very courteous and professional and is happy to answer any questions I have. Also, I am usually able to schedule our phone consultations same day which is incredibly convenient. I have had a very positive experience being a patient of hers!
She's the best in her field, I completely trust her with my cosmetic needs and have referred my friends and family to her. I have been a patient of Dr. Davis for over 10 years and will continue to see her regularly.
I wish I could give zero starts, or even negative stars. Dr. Davis is one of the worst dermatologists I have ever visited. I had an acne cyst that needed a cortisone injection - I've had many of them so this was not a new occurrence for me. She told me my cyst needed surgery (it didn't) which forced me to make another appointment 3 days later to have that procedure. In the interim she gave me samples of Retin-A which she instructed me to use treat my cyst "to help it improve before surgery". Retin-A on cysts inflames them - it never makes them improve. I think she was attempting to make my cyst worse so she could justify the surgery plus bill my insurance for a larger surgery. She also refuses to look at more than one skin issue per appointment - if you have multiple issues, you need multiple appointments. This gets her even more insurance money, as well as wastes your time. If you miss an appointment, she bills you. You must cancel 48 hours before your appointment, or she bills you. I canceled my surgery appointment, because I found another dermatologist who treated my cyst by giving me a cortisone shot, later that same day. Guess what - her office said I did not cancel my appointment and insisted on billing me. How can a patient prove they called int to cancel an appointment? They can't. I can't stress strongly enough - DO NOT SEE THIS PHYSICIAN.
Simply filling in the folds won't work in someone this age; since the pull of gravity won't allow the filler to lift. I would have filler injected along the cheek bone and along the jaw- up to the preauticular area. This will pull back the folds. More than 1 syringe of a heavy filler will be necessary.
These lines reflect gravity causing the cheeks to "sag", Fillers would be the easiest way to start. But the trick is that it doesn't go into the folds. The cheeks (and cheekbones) must be lifted and that will elevate the face. The lines will appear less deep. Surgical solutions such as a face lift or thread lift can be used but I would start with a simple solution first. Good Luck ! Joyce Davis MD, NY NY
I like Juvederm Volbella. It has an anesthetic and doesn't cause swelling. I am not sure what is available in your country, however. Good luck !
A quick and easy remedy to try would be one syringe of Juvederm. It can lift your eyebrows and when placed in the upper forehead/scalp junction does lift the forehead. You are young and don't need much!
When I inject the lower face, it is mainly to lessen the jowels. I inject in front of the ear and get a pulling back, effect. It is a non surgical face lift. I typically also inject the mid face, often along the cheekbones, to further lift the lower face. The goal is not to eliminate each and every wrinkle, but to make a patient look younger and rested. A heavier filler needs to be used. Ones that work well are Juvederm Voluma, Resylane Defyne, and Radiesse.
